Re: New Ninja rules
Yes. Ninjas are expensive pieces of hardware. The NAC general staff isn't going to sign off on a Ninja being deployed to take out PE CP. But, destroying a reactor that's providing power to most of the entire French coastline, or taking out a port that's supplying say all of the Netherlands is something I could see them approving. The target has to be worth the cost.

If you replace Icepick Leader with a Ninja, you could give the defenders some mines and allow them to set up some (additional?) units using Hidden Deployment (both to "play up" the Ninja's prowess in locating those). Maybe add a couple of HWTs or GEV-PCs to the infantry component. |

My (very long term*) goal is to create a series of Ninja scenarios that would be published a la Ogre Scenarios Book 2. D. * I've got a gazillion tasks keeping me busy easily through 2017 and into 2018, but I do want to do this project! D.

I've also got some rough ideas for Ninjas using the drones mentioned in the description.

Re: New Ninja rules
To be clear, this is not a formal request for submissions.
Rather, this would be an opportunity to share what you've created and offer a venue where you could get solid play-testing of your idea. D.

Re: New Ninja rules
Wich is why I mutated my thread into a discussion of my theory of scenario design. And haven't posted the new version yet :)
